About Web Design

If you're in the market for an attractive and effective web site to suit your product, business, or personal needs then you must have, by now, spent some time on the Internet browsing through web sites. Maybe the exact design you are looking for already exists on the Web. Maybe you're creative and would like to design your own look by adding your personal touches. There are a lot of good web authoring tools available, such as Microsoft Front Page and Adobe PageMill but that doesn't mean the HTML code is obsolete. You still have to know the code! Anybody can put together a quick site, but it is the creativity, knowledge, skill, and persistent hard work of the designer that makes the site unique and effective.

Many people make the mistake of choosing their web designer based on cost without comparing their quality of work with other designers. It's very important that your web designer or developer be skilled in both design and marketing. It's this combination that produces an effective web site. If the connection is not made between your prospective customers and your business web site then saving a few dollars on the design end will cost you a lot more in the long run when you are forced to hire a marketing company to fix or redesign your site to make it effective in the search engines. Jcran Solutions does it right the first time!

Web Design Process?

Our talented developers offer state of the art graphic and design work that will distinguish your business from your competitors while keeping in mind the functional requirements necessary for an effective web presence. We are also unique for our online marketing services, as we believe that marketing is as important as the design itself. Our search engine optimization specialists will give your business a top ranking with the search engines and directories and we go the extra mile to help you successfully promote your products or services. Our web development services include our initial marketing plan (at no additional cost) with correct submissions to the major search engines and directories such as Google, Looksmart and Yahoo!.

During production of your site we will post it on our server with a discrete address, unknown to the rest of the world, so that you can view it online from your home or business. You can watch the development stages of your site as it progresses. Any changes can be done via telephone, E-mail, or you can come to our office and work with us personally. Typically the word "designers" refers to the front end work and the word "developers" refers to the backend work. Jcran Solutions is skilled at both and develops a web presence for your business that is attractive to your customers/visitors and also highly effective.

* The first step in developing your website is to research the Internet for your competitors and existing websites that are comparable to your products, services, or business. Before site development begins, you would have already received our contractual agreement and cost estimate. While we wait for your materials which could include artwork, text, brochures, etc., we are performing extensive keyword research to determine the most likely words/phrases that someone would type in to find your business or services as well as research to determine an effective strategy for top placement within the directories and search engines. We then begin the basic layout of the front page based upon our research and the information that you supply to us. When the front page or home page is completed with your final approval, we then move swiftly into developing the rest of the site.

* The final step in the development stage is a complete proofreading on both of our parts. You will need to double-check your site's contents and then give us a final approval on the site so that we can start the search engine submissions and call it complete. We will fine tune the entire site, ensuring all graphics are optimized, inserting the meta tags, running a hyperlink check, testing all scripts/forms and checking the site in all browsers and resolutions. Every effort is made by our team to ensure that your website is error-free. Once completed, we provide site updates within 24 hours for our clients.

Our Web Design Packages & Pricing

Did you know that the large majority of webmasters and programmers lack the skill needed to place their clients at the top of the search engines? If you're shopping for prices, remember we design your pages at 100 percent optimization which makes your site search engine friendly and achieving top ranking with the major search engines and directories. Very few company offers this service and results at such a reasonable cost.

We offer several packages to serve your business needs and our prices are based primarily upon page count and/or the size of your website and not upon an hourly rate.

We always provide you with a written estimate so there are no hidden surprises and we send you our "Client Package" which includes a questionnaire and an agreement before we begin the process.

Website packages are available in varying sizes and prices, ranging from a small site consisting of 5-6 pages up to a 30-40 page sites or more. Our smallest package starts at $295 dollars and the price goes up depending upon how many pages are added.
